the time of filing this report.
While President Tinubu according to a video posted by Channels Television got to the oil-rich country around 7 pm on Friday, April 26, 2024, the presidential jet left Rotterdam around the same time and got to Riyadh airport at about 2 am on Saturday, April 27, 2024.
This suggests that the aircraft was later fixed and sent to Saudi Arabia to return the President to Nigeria.
Also, further checks revealed that the Nigerian Air Force 1, a Boeing Business Jet (Boeing 737-700) marked 5N-FGT has been parked at Euro Airport in Germany since March 25, 2024.
This means by Saturday, April 27, the Tinubu-led government had paid €165,000 as a parking fee for the aircraft.
The amount accounts for the aircraft’s parking charges for 33 days, at the rate of €5,000 per day.
The presidential jet was moved from Zaria to Germany for repairs.
Another jet in the presidential fleet, a Falcon 7X jet (5N-FGV) is also in France.
The aircraft arrived in Paris on April 22 from Istanbul, Turkey.
However, SaharaReporters could not ascertain why the presidential jet was taken to France, at the time of filing this report.
In the last one year, President Tinubu visited the country multiple times for medical attention and to see his doctors.
